The Kruger National Park, one of South Africa’s most renowned wildlife reserves, spans nearly two million hectares and offers a vast array of landscapes. From granite hills in the south to the savannahs of the east and the tropical forests in the north, this park is a haven for nature lovers. Known for its diversity, the park is a top destination for spotting the Big Five and offers rich wildlife experiences throughout the year.

Must-sees:

Culinary culture:

Kruger National Park's culinary scene is deeply rooted in local flavours. Most lodges and camps offer traditional South African braais (barbecues), where visitors can enjoy freshly grilled meats and locally grown produce. For an authentic experience, try biltong, a type of dried, cured meat, and pair it with South African wine, particularly from the nearby regions of Stellenbosch or Paarl.

Dive deeper:

Beyond the well-known game drives, the Kruger offers unique experiences such as guided walking safaris and birdwatching tours, where you can spot rare species like the African Fish Eagle. The park is also home to a variety of indigenous tribes, and several cultural tours give insight into the area's rich history, from the Shangaan and Zulu cultures to the stories of early explorers.

Good to know:

The Kruger National Park operates year-round, with the dry winter months (May to September) being the best time for game viewing. The park is easily accessible by road from Johannesburg or via daily flights to Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport. South African Rand (ZAR) is the local currency, and it’s recommended to bring cash for purchases within the park.
